Tinydeal ("TinyDeal Co. limited", founded: 2010, China) is a gadget shop with headquarters in Shenzhen, Guangdong (China). It also seems to be registered in Hong Kong or ship its orders from there. One big difference between TinyDeal and other China-based shopping sites is its customer-friendly and effective point system. With this system you can collect an interesting amount of money if you use it to its full potential. The website itself, on the other hand, is not very customer-friendly as it isn’t well-arranged and may seem a little chaotic to first-time visitors.

Experience with Tinydeal

Tinydeal is one of the biggest merchants in China and is already well-established, particularly in Eastern Europe. The estimated delivery times are pretty generous, as we received our orders way faster than predicted on most occasions. Other Pros and Cons include:

ranked 2546 of the most visited websites, 20% of the users are from Russia (Alexa.com)

Pros

PayPal payment possible without an account on Tinydeal

with account: special payment methods such as Western Union

free standard shipping

expedited shipping via DHL possible for an extra charge

point system with many possibilities

browsing of popular brands

partially exotic range of products with SSD-harddrives for example

Cons

comparably long delivery times

pages appears overcrowded and confusing

reviews are written mainly in Russian, Italian, Spanish or French

Payment

Tinydeal doesn’t force customers to open an account to place an order. You can checkout via PayPal and use all of PayPal’s advantages. By using PayPal you can use its 180-days-period to open a case and get your money back. If you do open an account on TinyDeal, you get to use other, other payment methods become available. One of the better known methods is Western Union. But, as always, we suggest that you use PayPal.

Of course, you can also choose between several exotic payment methods - but these seem to be mainly interesting for Russian customers - Western Union is apparently the most well-known option of these alternatives. So we definitely recommend using PayPal.

Delivery times and shipping

The estimated delivery times at Tinydeal of 15-30 business days for free standard shipping are comparatively high but can be lowered by using one of the many inexpensive shipping options. A useful tool is the shipping cost calculator, which you can use on your shopping basket without having to go through all the order transaction motions.

DHL is listed as one of the express shipping partner and should be able to deliver your order within 4-7 days to the United States.

Tinydeal and customs

TinyDeal declares the packages professionally most of the time, but our experience and research show that TinyDeal definitely has room for improvement concerning their package declarations.

You should be aware that customs does random checks on well-declared packages from China. For shipments entering the US, extra taxes and fees on your product are a possible, if not entirely common, side-effect of international ordering. The amount to be paid can vary widely from nothing to $495 depending on the product and how its sent. Not every item is taxed when entering the country, but the majority are only subject to a nominal processing fee of between $2 and $9 when entering the country. If you are concerned about your item, or are planning to order goods in excess of $100, it is worth it to check with the Customs Office at the port of entry to confirm any extra taxes.

Any extra taxes or duty on your shipment will either be paid at your door when the mailman drops it off, or the package may be held at your local post office and you will need to go pick it up and pay any applicable fees in person.

Specific features

TinyDeal’s point system generates a discount that you can use on your orders. For each order placed, you get 10% of the item value in points and can convert 10 points to a 1 US-Dollar ($) discount. This means that you get a credit of $1 for every $100 spent. For each review you receive 1 - 2 points, 10 points per video and for every picture (a maximum of 5 pictures per item) 1 point. An overview and further information on TinyDeal’s point system can be found on Tinydeal. If you add these points to the before mentioned order, you get a discount of up to $2.70. This may not seem like much, but considering that you often buy inexpensive gadgets, you might get a gadget or two for free through this point system.

Conclusion

TinyDealis, in our opinion, still in the fledgling stages concerning the Central European market but is making strides in the right direction. Since its beginning, it’s been open for feedback and keeps on getting bigger and better.

0 Tinydeal Coupons

TinyDeal appears to hide its current coupons on its website, so that the easiest way to get all of the coupons is to check on our website for the newest promotion codes. The coupons often offer a great percentage off. If you compare it to other shops and their coupons, it is definitely a great way to save money. There are daily deals but in most cases these aren’t as interesting as deals on other online shops.

Sorry, no coupons are currently available.

100% positive rating, I would order again. I have ordered a Xiaomi Redmi 4 Pro. I have ordered it from Warehouse Germany on 10th of January and received it via DHL on 13th of January 2017. Perfect time for shipping. I got exactly what I ordered. I only can recommend this shop for further orders. No shipping costs.

Do NEVER buy anything on this website. if a problem with delivery takes place, you will never see get a single refunding penny.
I ordered a phone on this website on January 31st. The delieveryingd had issuses, and since I am trying to get back a refund by contacting their client contact center, which seems to be a computer program which only makes you waste your time. I think I have lost hope to see any of the money I paid.

The first ordered there and until today after 34 days received no goods.
I had it somehow in the feeling that nothing matters, because at least are things from the region after 14 days there .... Not to be recommended !!!
